Tori'ou is a death tradition of the Tolaki people as a process of releasing the body so that the body can rest in peace. This tradition emerged and developed in the Tolaki community. In its development, this tradition has changed from time to time. This tradition has a function and also has several stages in its implementation. This study uses a historical method consisting of three stages, namely: (1) Heuristics (Collection of Data Sources), (2) Verification (Source Criticism) and (3) Historiography (Writing History). The emergence of this Tori'ou tradition was brought by the elders who first occupied the Watubangga Village, then they spread it and invited other people to participate in carrying out the Tori'ou tradition. Changes in the Tori'ou tradition originated from the Tolaki community refusing to carry out the Tori'ou tradition because they considered the tradition to be contrary to Islamic law because there were no examples of it in the verses of the Qur'an. The function of the tradition is to entertain the bereaved family, to strengthen ties between residents. The stages of implementing the Tori'ou tradition are, a. 3rd Night (Wingi o tolu), b. 7th night (wingi o pitu), c. 40th night (wingi pato mbulo) and d. 100th night (wingi aso etu) the entire series of events from the 3rd night to the 100th night are considered complete through pepokolapasi’a.
